I am reminded of T.S. Eliot’s famous poem “Hollowmen” in this context ! This dramatic saga of impeachment bears testimony to the fact that Indian Polity is at its wits end reflecting hollowness of the highest degree !

After more than seven decades of India’s independence, the nation must have leapt forward and taken long strides in advancement of outlook and maturity but alas ! where we stand today and where have we reached ? When shall we master the art to cease groping in the dark and shun frittering away our energies and time in meaningless pursuits?
